Quotation from: Great Expectations

Written by: Charles Dickens


"Now," said Mrs. Joe, unwrapping herself with haste and excitement,
and throwing her bonnet back on her shoulders where it hung by the
strings: "if this boy an't grateful this night, he never will be!"


I looked as grateful as any boy possibly could, who was wholly
uninformed why he ought to assume that expression.


"It's only to be hoped," said my sister, "that he won't be
Pomp-eyed. But I have my fears."
